Buenos Aires is a very European city, why’s that?The Argentine Aristocracy from the late XVIII Century wanted Buenos Aires to be a Latin Paris. Their desire was so big, that there are entire buildings made out of French materials. Of course they all were wealthy people who owned big extensions of land, or big companies.Now those amazing European palaces belong to different owners, embassies, the state, or private companies.All this palaces and mentions are located in the north of the city, were the wealthy people lives. There is an amazing contrast between the south, where all the immigrants neighborhoods used to be.These are some examples:French embassyUS embassyCulture palaceAnchorena Palace, now international relationships buildingCustoms buildingThis is now the Decorative Art museum.Decorative Art museumDecorative art museum ball roomEven in the streets, you can see random construction with French aspects.San telmoThis is the English tower, or monumental tower.
